Catalogue
Klaus Jorn’s catalogue was produced in collaboration between North and Stalke Galleri for his exhibition at Alexandra Wice Gallery in New York in 1989. The text was written by the Italian art historian Gabrielle Peretta, who followed Jorn’s work closely during the late 1980s. The catalogue documents this period and presents the works included in the exhibition that marked his international breakthrough.

About this text / Historical note
This catalogue essay by Italian critic Gabriele Perretta — later recognised as one of Italy’s central theorists of post-media and visual communication — was written for Klaus Jorn’s exhibition at Stalke/Jedig in the late 1980s.
Perretta was among the first international critics to write about the Stalke circle, helping to connect Stalke’s early Danish experimental scene with the emerging Italian avant-garde.
